I strongly dissagree with the statement that teleporting is (too) cheap. In the contrary - once you'll discover the most of the map / reach the main story quests later on in the game about 25 - 35+ levels where one quest can send you easilly 10 - 15+ times accross the hallf of the world (like Tataru / Minifilia ones) you might change your mind about this. I've paid about 5 or 6k gills on one quest only and using the fav location at Horizon, return teleport at other and occassional "slow" traveling on the mounts otherwise it would be more than double of that.
